This posting to serve 2 series of this journal "Above & Below" and "The Other Tenant's" ... and sort of a Memorial Day posting with a twist, not like the ones I do in the "Veterans Spotlight" series for our military veterans ... but this posting to look at and honour those forgotten warriors who fought and died naturally on America's land, sea and air before our species arrived. A time before human written rules, laws, religions, politics and man-made filth/ pollution ... in the area we call now North America and it's lost sea ... the Western Interior Seaway (Wikipedia), a time when what we look at as the wild west was really wild, a time before any of the human type species (sometimes humorously thought of as God's little personal Teddy Bear's) ... and my "guess" is that there were more human/ hominins related types going even further back than what we know and discovered so far. But this was a time of survival of the fittest basically, when kill or be killed was the natural law of the land, sea and air. I hear folks alwayz saying they wish they could time travel to the future, with me I alwayz wanted to go back in time to see what it was like before any of what we have now, or to actually see before there was life on this planet, or maybe see the start of our solar system, the natural action and reaction chaos of planet/ body collision or meteor strikes, etc. I also met folks that did not believe there may have been a sea where we stand today in Dallas for example ... but fossils dont lie ... lying is a human specialty. I remember once a couple decades ago when they were building the first subway tunnels under North Central Dallas, workers got sick, it was reported that they were sickened from gas let off from ancient sea turtles. I added a couple video's below found on YouTube ... the first some fossil exhibits and background, and the last one simply for the beautiful artwork in it.
